Clinic at Siana

Friday morning we got up early ate breakfast and left for Siana with a 2 hour game drive on the way there - we were blessed with a rhino, lions and huge herd of buffalo, plus all the regular grazers.

We set up for clinic and I headed up to check on the kids working at the building site nearby and drop off some more food for them. They looked worn out, but happy and begged me to allow them to stay there one more night. So I agreed and told them we would be stopping by after clinic at Siana to tour the site and check out the work they had been doing.

Clinic went well. We had plenty of patients. Had to send one to hospital because of a possible brain tumor - the childs mom was 17 years old, she was married at 12 years old and this was her second child. Praise the Lord for all of you who have sent in donations to "Charitable Medical Funds" for the mission trips. That money will go to help the child above and another one that we had to send in for emergency surgery in Oliotokitok.

After clinic the group toured the building site before heading back to our campsite for the evening. Tomorrow we pack everything up and head out to the Mara River for the night! Cant wait - all though there seems to be some rain clouds gathering over the Mara.
